FY 2001 Self-Help Homeownership Opportunity Programs Application
Application Package:
There is no separate application kit. In order to address all application requirements for the SHOP program, you must refer to both the General and the SHOP Program sections of the SuperNOFA dated February 26, 2001. The General section addresses all Federal
laws that apply to HUD competitive grants, threshold requirements
that applicants must meet to be eligible for funding, and the
Department’s priority initiatives that applicants are encouraged
to implement. The SHOP Program section addresses the unique program
requirements for application submission.
Eligible Applicants:
Applicants must be regional or national nonprofit organizations or consortia having constructed
at least 30 self-help housing units within a national or regional
area within the two years preceding the SuperNOFA announcement.
To be awarded a SHOP grant, applicants must demonstrate the ability
to construct a minimum of 30 dwelling units at an average cost
of $10,000 or less in SHOP funds, and select homebuyers whose
incomes do not exceed 80 percent of median income for the area
who can make a sweat-equity contribution toward the construction
of the home. SHOP funds may be used only for land acquisition,
infrastructure improvements, and administrative costs. Applicants
must leverage other funds for the construction of the non-luxury
dwelling units that comply with local building and safety codes
and standards.
